Thousands of gypsies have been trying
to emigrate to Canada and Britain. They say they are fleeing persecution(迫害),
but most have found they are not welcome in these countries either. Gypsies have
never had a home. Europe has experienced enormous upheavals this century. Wars, revolutions, separations and elections have changed the political map of the continent countless times. And with each change, power has shifted, creating new winners and new losers. But for one group -- the gypsies -- change has always meant losing. With each upheaval, the gypsies have been left worse off than they were before. Yet they have survived to become Europe’s largest minority. Moreover, they have succeeded in preserving their culture and their way of life in the face of genocide (种族灭绝), political persecution and poverty.

Many held signs and American flags and asked to be treated as citizens—not criminals. Many of these supported legislation from Senator John McCain that would open a path to citizenship to immigrants who were already in the country illegally. Proposed legislation from other politicians called for stricter measures - including rounding up undocumented immigrants and sending them back to their home countries. Canadian officials say that immigration applications continue to rise. Some want to keep the doors open. They need the labor. About 400, 000 immigrants were allowed into the country in 2005, according to the Canadian Government statistics. However, all this growth means that cities need to adapt. Newcomers don’t always make a smooth transition into jobs for which they are skilled. So indus A. Canada is in desperate need of talented people B. Canada can feed a much larger population C.
